Opinion
The appellant appeals his conviction on two counts of knowingly passing counterfeit obligations of the United States. 18 U.S.C. § 472. He argues that the Government’s evidence was not sufficient to prove that he passed the three bogus ten dollar bills with .knowledge that they were counterfeit. Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the Government, as we are required to do, we cannot say that evidence presented and inferences therefrom are not substantial, so as to overturn the guilty verdict of the jury. United States v. Nelson, 419 F.2d 1237 (9th Cir. 1969); Ruiz v. United States, 374 F.2d 619 (5th Cir. 1967).
Affirmed.
